5 Important things we need in GTA VI

It has been over 2 years since the release of Grand Theft Auto V; with GTA V expanding and moving the game in a positive way in terms of gameplay and expansion in the open-world gaming genre, to being one of the best-selling video games of all time, even being well recognized as one of the best if not THE BEST and most significant title on seventh generation home consoles to date. Although Rockstar Games has not confirmed an official GTA VI release date, considering the success its predecessor has received, we’re definitely excited about it. While we wait for more information to be released there are 5 important things that Rockstar should implement in GTA VI as well as future installments.

  1. New Location and new time period

Rockstar, we need a new location in the series. While I was a fan of the location of GTA V being set in San Andreas and while they did expand the city more than in the last game that was set in the location (GTA: San Andreas). it’s time for a new location to be created within the world. Liberty City, Vice City, and San Andreas have been overused and it’s time we have a new setting in the series. With rumors speculating that GTA VI may potentially be set in the 1980s in a city based off of Chicago, I personally would love to see them explore this idea even more. Regardless if GTA VI time is set in the 80s or present day. I would love to see this game be set in a fictional version of Chi-Town. Even if the rumors are false about the game being set in the Windy City I would still love a different time period explored, preferably early 80s or any time period during the 1970s, when there were a bunch of major crimes occurring in the United States.

  1. Bring back the old health bar

Although GTA V can be one of the best games in the series the game’s health bar system is incredibly flawed and vague; leading to your characters dying too easily while exploring the wonders of San Andreas. Future GTA games and implicitly, GTA VI, should implement the older health bar system which has your health start at 100 then decrease the number when the player has taken damage with 0 meaning the player has died.

  1. Keep multiple protagonists

Prior to GTA V, the series was known to have a memorable main protagonist in their games, like Niko Bellic from GTA IV, and CJ from San Andreas, and Tommy Vercetti from Vice City. While all those characters were amazing and awesome in their own way the multiple protagonists was surely a fresh idea that worked extremely well and was one of the key reasons GTA V was critically successful; replay value was able to expand on more options than past games. Each of the three protagonists had their own individual traits, personalities and special abilities, and storylines blended perfectly. Hopefully Rockstar keeps this dynamic in GTA VI.

  1. Bring back ‘Old School’ style weapons

Anyone who has played all the GTA games or at least a good handful of them would argue that Vice City had the best weapons hands down; from meat cleavers, to chainsaws to screw drivers Vice City had a wide diversity of melee weapons at your leisure. I would love for them to bring a store where you can buy melee weapons like spike bats. The melee weapons in GTA V were not very creative and somewhat bland. Hopefully, GTA VI and future installments in the series will have a wide variety of both firearms and melee weapons alike. (I would also like to see a return of the tank, for ultimate destruction of course.)

  1. Female Protagonists

Regardless whether or not Rockstar will keep the multiple protagonists dynamic (which I hope they do) we need a female protagonist in GTA VI. With GTA garnering criticism for its misogynistic views towards women, even allowing players the option to attend strip clubs and sleep with prostitutes, Rockstar needs to start coming up with ideas to advance the series in a new direction by having a female protagonist. The last strong role a female player had was in Grand Theft Auto III; although Catalina was not a playable character she did have a strong role within the game’s plot.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
